1000 islands Getaway

If you are looking for a family vacation or just a quick weekend getaway, the 1000 Islands is your perfect home away from home. Whether you plan to enjoy ice fishing, hiking trails, summer golf trip or boutique shopping. A stay at the 1000 Islands makes the perfect escape from the hectic city life.

Located on Howe Island Ferry Road, our cottage is a 10 minute drive to downtown Kingston, and right next door to the ferry dock that takes you to Howe Island.

There are several boat launches in the area. There is one in Grass Creek Park which is 1.8 KM from the cottage. Grass Creek Park has a beach as well, so you can swim or go kayaking etc.

There is a wood burning fireplace in the living room to keep you cozy in winters and summer nights.
Some FAQs answered:
Guest Access: areas with no guest access are clearly marked. Guests do not have access to the garages, basement (unfinished), and cleaners' closet.
There are outdoor security cameras on the property. Please refrain from manipulating / tampering (unplugging, changing directions etc) outdoor security devices.

Beautiful home
Beautiful big home but it needs work as it is dated. Perfect for a big group. Nice quiet location not far from everything. Needs instruction on how to use the smart thermostat. There was a beautiful big jacuzzi tub but no instructions on how to turn it on, there was no switch so that was disappointing.
